A few days later.
The expert from the Griffith Family gathered again, discussing Theo's movement inside the Dark Poison Swamp.
"He hasn't stopped moving yet." One of them said with a grim expression.
"Yeah. Does he have a way to stop this poison mist? Is he a Poison Expert?"
"I don't think so. According to the information, Theodore Griffith is related to a figure with Death power, so there's no way he can withstand this kind of poison mist."
"Then, it must be his assistant."
When they mentioned Agata, they furrowed their eyebrows at the same time, thinking the same thing.
"A Supreme Rank Expert that can stop the Poison Mist… It's either a unique skill, or her ability is already far above Mythical Rank Experts in terms of poison. If such a person is allowed to grow beside Theo, I'm afraid…"
Without him finishing the words, they all knew what would happen. Poison experts weren't well-received by society because they had the ability to kill someone without them noticing.
If Agata had such skills, sooner or later, they might die because of her poison. And it wasn't something that the Griffith Family wanted to see.
"No matter what happens, both Theodore Griffith and his assistant, Liza Therel, need to die."
They had come to an agreement and knew their jobs.
"This explains why the War God Family has been trying to break through our encirclement for the past few days. They know Theo is alive."
"Their plan must be to fool us into thinking Theo has died. If we actually left this place after a few hours, they would have achieved their objective." The expert nodded with a serious expression, satisfied with the fact that they chose the right move a few days ago.
"The War God Family still can't break through our people. Without the pope's help, the War God Family can't do anything. In that case, let's wait for another few days."
They nodded at each other, acknowledging the plan.
Little did they know, their harbinger of death had come.
Suddenly, the sky turned dark, and thunder started filling the area.
"Hmm? Why does the sky…" One of the experts raised his head and said with a frown. He noticed that the dark cloud only covered the Dark Poison Swamp. In fact, they could still see the blue sky on the horizon, so this only meant one thing.
"An artificial cloud?" They looked up and immediately tried to see what was happening. Normally, they would leave this place and investigate it later, but because Theo was inside the swamp, they had no choice other than to stay.
"I shall check what happens." One of the experts nodded and waved both hands as torrential winds started to envelop his body. This should be enough to withstand the thunder cloud
As soon as he finished his preparation, he leaped upward and flew toward the dark cloud.
The cloud responded to the man's action by flashing its lightning. The flash of yellow lightning made the guy close his eyes for a split second.
And a bolt of lightning was formed in that split second.
"Huh, that is…" The guy's body trembled. The bolt of lightning was releasing a huge amount of energy. Even he wouldn't escape unscathed if he received this bolt of lightning because he believed this wasn't natural lightning.
Suddenly, a metal smell permeated the air. It was enough for him to realize what was going to happen.
Without hesitation, the guy threw himself to the side before a yellow light flashed. The bolt of lightning then struck forth, barely missing the guy.
*Bam!*
The lightning hit a tree and split it into two.
"That was natural lightning… No, it wasn't supposed to be natural lightning. It was sacrificing its power to get some speed, so…" The guy's face became serious as he sped up, trying to see who was behind the cloud.
Unfortunately for him, he would never be able to see the figure on top of the cloud because the bolt of lightning came down again.
Unlike the previous lightning strike, this bolt of lightning moved slower as its body was slightly bigger.
Knowing it was more powerful than the previous strike, the guy leaped to the right to avoid the lightning. He had some leisure time for this one because it sacrificed some speed to get some power.
But he should have turned around and escaped.
Getting closer to this lightning wasn't the best thing to do.
When the lightning was about to pass him, it curved and looped around his body before reaching him from behind.
"What?!" The guy widened his eyes in disbelief and immediately flew to the side to avoid this lightning.
Sadly, it was too late. The lightning was already this close to him. Even if he stopped underestimating the lightning, it was useless.
The lightning suddenly had another turn, adjusting its course.
"Shit." The guy gritted his teeth and saw the incoming lightning. He hurriedly covered his whole body with the torrential wind to soften the impact.
The lightning reached him and exploded.
"Boom!"
The explosion created a ball of light that expanded for at least one hundred feet radius.
"Aaahhhh!" The guy screamed in pain as not only did he get electrocuted by the lightning, but he was also vaporized by the heat.
"What?!" The other three experts, who were tasked to stand by around the Dark Poison Swamp, were shaken by this sight.
"He died? Just like that?"
They couldn't believe a Mythical Rank Expert could die after just a single lightning strike. Even Leonardo wouldn't be able to kill them like this.
"That lightning is not normal. Are they waiting for this lightning the entire time?" The experts never expected that they had been played by Theo.
To their surprise, someone actually answered their doubts.
"You're right." A male's voice echoed in their ears as all of them turned around and found a man with long pointed ears.
This mysterious man raised his hand and slapped one of the experts. "So, die…"
Their surprise had yet to end because the slap was only strong enough to shake their head a bit. Even the hand was still stuck to the cheek as though it was still trying to push the head to the other side.
The guy, who got slapped, smirked and thought this person was weak, ignoring the pointed ears that clearly told him he wasn't a human.
Seeing that smirk only pissed him even more. The Magic Power around his arms started to clash with each other before flowing to his hand and ultimately to the head, leaving several thunderclaps.
Once the Magic Power reached its target, the head exploded like a balloon as the blood splattered to the side.
"You thought I was weak?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
